It's a sad admission to make at only 24, but I can't live without my iron. There's something so satisfying about freshly pressed clothes.

But finding space for a full-sized ironing board in a small home is a constant battle. That's why I am jumping at the opportunity to grab this compact Joseph Joseph Tabletop Folding Ironing Board from Amazon during the Prime sale.

With 25% off, this all-in-one $74 board and iron storage solution is perfect for organizing a small house with no storage without compromising on how neat and crisp my clothes look.

Why the Joseph Joseph tabletop ironing board is the fix my small home needs

Whether you are living in a small rented home, as I do, or need to maximize space in a small laundry room, this folding ironing board and organizer is ideal.

While you can iron without an ironing board, a good base helps achieve crisp pressed seams without the risk of misshaping your garments.

Trust me, it's a laundry tip I learned from my military father when I was a child, and I have sworn by it ever since.

Rather than having to balance my big board against the wall and shove my iron on the floor in a corner (where it gets very dusty), this hanging solution keeps them both together, compact and accessible, while making use of vertical storage to save space.

I am not the only fan of this hand space-saving laundry hack, either.

With over 2,000 five-star reviews on Amazon alone, the Joseph Joseph Pocket Folding Tabletop Ironing Board with Iron Holder is loved by fellow shoppers for being incredibly convenient, durable, and versatile.

Verified Amazon user Jen Taylor said the board was so cute, 'it makes them want to iron.'

They shared, 'This little unit is perfect! It’s lightweight but extremely well-made and sturdy. I love that it requires very little space to store and can easily be popped up just about anywhere, at any height my heart desires.'

This also makes the unit a wonderful storage idea to improve accessibility in your home, too.

Verified shopper Allen added that it is easy to use anywhere in your home, too, making it perfect for small spaces.

'It's a great compact ironing board that you can use on your bed. Can easily be folded away in a tiny footprint, and very sturdy once set up.'

My small-space laundry essentials


Ironing is not my only small-home laundry conundrum. I have also gotten pretty good at drying clothes in a small space, saving money on dryer costs.
